1. Removing coffee and tea stains

Who would have thought that a single denture tablet could save your cups and mugs from stubborn coffee and tea stains? Coffee and tea stains are stubborn and difficult to remove, especially if they are present for a long time. Tablets for dentures contain powerful cleaning agents that break down stains and bacteria. The process is simple: fill a cup or pitcher with hot water, add the tablet and leave it to work overnight. Rinse with warm water the next morning and your mug will be as good as new. You can use the same method to remove stains from bottles, jugs and thermos​​.

2. Cleaning glass vases

Glass vases often become cloudy due to the residue of water and flowers that accumulate on the walls of the vase. Even stubborn mineral deposits can build up and create unsightly stains. To get rid of these stubborn residues, fill a vase with water, add a denture tablet and leave it on overnight. The next day, rinse the vase with hot water. The cleaning properties of denture tablets will remove any residue and your vase will be crystal clear again. In addition, the tablets have an antibacterial effect, which prevents the growth of bacteria and prolongs the freshness of your flowers.

3. Refreshing clogged drains

Forget harsh drain unclogging chemicals that can damage pipes and are harmful to the environment. Denture tablets offer an effective and environmentally friendly alternative. Crush three tablets and mix them with one cup of vinegar, then pour the mixture down the clogged drain. Wait a few minutes for the mixture to activate and begin to break down the clogs, then rinse with hot water. This method is particularly effective for removing grease and organic waste that accumulates in drains.

4. Removing stains from plastic containers

Stains from tomato sauce and other colored foods on plastic containers can be a real nightmare. Tablets for dentures contain bleaching and cleaning agents that effectively break down these stains. Fill the container with hot water, add the tablet and leave it to work overnight. The next day, wash the dishes with hot water and regular dish detergent. Your dishes will be like new, without stubborn stains that previously spoiled their appearance. 

5. Cleaning tiles and joints

Give your veneers a new shine using denture tablets. Crush a few tablets, sprinkle them on the tiles and scrub with warm water. Tiles and grout often become dirty and lose their luster due to the accumulation of dirt and limescale. Mix some crushed tablets with a little warm water to make a thick paste. Apply the paste to the tiles and joints and let it work for a few minutes. Then scrub the surfaces with a cleaning brush and rinse with water. The result will be stunning, as your tiles and joints will look like new again.

6. Descaling from water kettles

Kettles and coffee machines are often victims of mineral deposits that can affect their appearance and performance. Fill the kettle with water, add the denture tablet and let it work for a few hours. The tablets will break down mineral deposits and remove stubborn stains. Then rinse the kettle well with hot water. This method is equally effective for removing deposits from coffee machines and other devices that frequently come into contact with water.

7. Jewelry cleaning

Denture tablets can restore the shine to your jewelry. Jewelry, especially those made of hard stones such as diamonds and gold, often lose their luster due to the accumulation of dirt and grease. Fill a bowl with hot water, add the tablet and let your jewelry soak for 20 minutes. Then rinse the jewelry with water and gently dry it. Your jewelry will once again shine in its full beauty. Avoid using this method on softer stones, such as pearls and lapis, which could be damaged.

Denture tablets are a truly versatile cleaning aid. The next time you're looking for a solution to stubborn stains or hard-to-reach spots, try one of these tricks and see for yourself.
